I was wanting some help on a fuse panel for up to 6 farkles and a main fuse. I want to turn power off with the key. I want to install a Audiovox Cruise Control, XM Radio, Radar Detector, GPS, Air Horn.

What is the best electrical, connecters BMW plugs? Any of you who have done this or are knowledgeable please give me some ideas.

Thanks,

Texhoss

I use the BMW type plugs.

I only use the BMW plug for my vest which is tucked under the seat when needed, my GPS and radar detector is hardwired to the handlebars so I just unplug from there when I want to remove them.

Eastern Beaver has a strange name but some decent electical products.You can check Painless Performances' Cirkit Boss,Centech or Blue Sea for a fuse block-power strip and add a relay to a switched hot wire.Some like the cirkit boss have some switched and at least one always hot terminals.If your short on $$ you can get every thing you need at Radio Shack.I have two hot Powerlet sockets up front and and a Blue Sea 5025 fuse block[switched] for hard wired accessories like my heated grips,xm and my detector.

I have hard wired most of my farkles staright to the battery.. I like being able to turn on my gps when the key os off..

Ialso have my escort(radar) harwired to check the battery voltage when the bike ie off.. A radio shack unit will work fine as long as you don't over tax your Stator while running,,,

Good luck
